It's not important. What is important is that I will lose the contact of some pretty special people. People that I have become to treasure. The group...

Saw some pictures in the newspaper of a class reunion of my high school. When I was in the school, it was very small. Only 210 students in 9-12 grades.

And when I went out the...1 Recommendation5 Comments

Mom was a shoe-in in getting to heaven. Dad was a project. As some of you know, My dad and I weren't the closest. But I loved him mo...1 Recommendation4 Comments

I'm sitting here waiting for the phone to ring. Waiting for the call that will say the part for my car is here and I can get it put in. It's the shoulder harness and I need it to get the car inspected. I'm having to take money from my savings account to pay for it. It's amazing how much it costs. But, without it, the car can't pass state inspectio...2 Recommendations1 Comment
